Glyceria elata (Tall Mannagrass)

Glyceria elata, commonly known as Tall Mannagrass, is a perennial grass native to wetland areas in North America. It forms dense clumps of slender, arching leaves that can reach a height of up to 5 feet. The plant produces long, branched panicles of purplish flowers in the summer, which give way to seed heads that persist into the winter. Tall Mannagrass is a versatile plant that can be grown in marshes, stream banks, or other moist areas, where it provides erosion control and habitat for wildlife.
